So, if we go fishing for a month there is a chance we are going to miss seeing the progress?
there goes that trip
Nope, check the blog @ http://anglersparadise.ca

This looks like a great thread, but all the pictures are missing before page 15.
Is there an explanation for that?
Yes, I know. I moved them into a different album to keep them all together.
Sorry.
But you can see most if not all of those pics on my cabin building blog @ http://www.anglersparadise.ca/

Anyone watching the Sens/Jets game?
Byfuglien dang near killed Stone with the best body check this season!!

OK, I need one of these!!!
Where does one get one though?

Thx again folks
I think looking on Kijiji for lenses is generally good advice---subject to the usual caveats re buying used.
Henry's 55-250 lens was list as $370 but was offered as part of the pkg for $200. That sounded too good to pass up.
It's a decent lens.
Far from great but it's well worth the $$$.
It's the first lens I bought for my setup too.
It even works well for taking pics at the good old hockey game!!

Made it back out to the cabin this Easter Monday and did a little work.Got a bunch on notches done in the back wall studs to let in my loft floor rim board.Arms were about ready to fall off after cutting all of them with my heavy Skil saw.
Also got the first board in place.

NAH, it's all in the processing of the image.

what freakin' language are they speaking????
Austrailian, mate!!!

The alarm is in the throttle control.

What's the purpose? Just tie a line to a car and have someone drive away. You aren't going to land the car either. When I had a dog I would tie the line to her collar and play fetch in the basement in the dead of winter. Good way to set up the drag and see exactly how much line is going out when the reel is screaming.
Her husband has landed a 200# yellowfin tuna off the rocks.

With the help of Mr. B got my wood out to the cabin yesterday.
Still lots of good ice too.
Got Mr. and Mrs. B to come out for a little fishin' and sleddin' today.
-
Man I would have loved to see this fish.
Her husband has landed tuna to 200#'s from shore.
This was a really big fish, especially if you consider that reel is probably spooled with about 400yds of 80# braid and they are probably running about 25#'s of drag.

Yes I think it's about 3 hr drive to the Outer Banks. I have no idea if my Lund can be used in salt water though, even if it can, I have to stay real close to shore due to its size.
Plenty of protected water to fish.
No need to head out deep or far off shore.
Your Lund will be fine in the salt.
You need to give it a thorough rinse inside and out as well as the trailer and flushing the engine and washing your tackle after each trip though.
-
You're just a couple of hours drive to the coast and some salty fishing too. Lots of redfish and other inshore stuff you can do with your boat.
-
One thing I forgot to mention is before your trip go over the whole trailer looking for loose/missing fasteners and cracked welds.
When I went over mine before heading on my trip I found a broken spring mount weld that had to be repaired before the long journey.
-
Wow 6000kms! Did you have any trouble at all with the bearings and tires on the trip?
Nope, not a single issue at all.
-
I have pulled my boat about 6,000kms one way.
Before the trip I replaced the rims and tires with new and put the old ones in the boat as spares.
I then did a full repack on the bearings and had a spare set just in case.
I also had a tub of grease and the tools needed to replace the bearings if needed.
Like Bill I checked the hubs and tires @ each fuel stop.

When getting into the DSLR game, what people really need to realize is that their investment should be in glass (lenses) not the bodies (Go figure I just upgraded to a 7D mk II, lol).. Bodies change, great lenses should be looked at as investments for the most part. You could have the greatest DSLR body, but put that behind a crappy lens and nothing is going to help.
YUP!!!!
Image quality is all in the glass!!!
FYI, that's the body I want!!!

I guess the T3 has now been replaced by a newer model. The only ones I see on the Henry's site are used.
Correct as it's an older unit.
The T5 has replaced it as their entry level unit.
